What happens if McKay doesn't fill a role we desperately need him too? We need to wait another few years until the next, currently undrafted, kid comes on?
Agreed 100%, fwd line is a massive issue and we didnt do much about it. But I dont think it is that simple. What should they have done? Short of a Tom-Boyd-like offer, or taking a KPP in the draft with the first pick (and missing out on Sammo) there is really no short term fix. Last thing we would want to do is offer contracts to Aaron Edwards, James Steward or Nathan Vardy - which would have been short term fixes, but really just added list cloggers.
Maybe they have a plan for '18 (incl Ben S)??
